Stephanie Schneider Book order

There's room for everyone here! A picture book about tolerance and sharing. The deer have discovered a secret place while on a road trip in their chic convertible. And of course they want it all to themselves! But soon, more and more animals gather at the lake. They go swimming, sunbathe, play cards, take naps, and have picnics. There's a lot going on! And the deer are not happy about that—at all. When it suddenly starts to rain and the seats in the great (topless—because deer have very tall antlers!) convertible get wet, the other animals come to the rescue with the same blankets, umbrellas, and towels that had previously irritated the deer. The deer soon realize, with regret, that it's nicer when all the animals are together and getting along.

Although we don't always like to admit it, all families fight. Spouses argue with each other, siblings butt heads, and children disobey their parents. Even extended family members can get pulled into a nuclear family feud. Everyday disputes between family members -- whether over what to buy at the grocery store, what movie to watch, or who gets the biggest slice of cake -- are natural. In fact, frequent fights can indicate emotional closeness in a family, as people who feel connected to each other will often be more open about their feelings. But it's also important to know how to resolve these conflicts when they occur, so that the family can learn from each dispute and ultimately grow. The Little Conflict Guide addresses the reality of family conflict and offers readers methods for conflict resolution. Using a humorous and warm tone, Schneider presents practical, thought-provoking ideas to end fights and restore harmony. With one or two pages devoted to each solution, including bright illustrations, this guide will help families resolve their conflicts in record time and feel prepared to tackle any disputes that crop up in the future!

Stefanie Schneider uses expired Polaroid film to photograph her friends in wigs, in silver underwear in trailer parks, and on rooftops, in a retro B-movie aesthetic helped along by the instant-antiquing of the discolored film and by the fact that some of her models are genuine movie stars. Among motel signs from the 50s, palm trees against the blue sky, candy-colored limousines, a gas station in the middle of nowhere, we find young people who seem oddly lost, vacant-eyed--among them Naomi Watts and Ewan McGregor. Director Marc Forster has picked up on Schneider's movie-friendly aesthetic and integrated her work into Stay, his new thriller starring Watts and McGregor. Stranger than Paradise, Schneider's latest reminiscence of a Hollywood that may never have been, that may be more David Lynch and Last Picture Show than anything real, has been created and brought out in cooperation with Hollywood as we know it today, and is to be released in conjunction with the film.
